Description

 

Remote Desktop Manager separates its connection types in three different categories:

 

Remote connections
Virtualization
Others

 

Remote Connections

 

This category contains all of the connection types that are used to connect to a remote system, including computers, switches, VPNs or printers.

 

Virtualization

 

This category contains all of the virtualization connections, including the local virtual machines tools and server tools. Remote Desktop Manager supports tools from Microsoft, VMware and Sun Microsystems.

 

Other

 

This category contains many useful session types that are not directly supported, or those that are are neither a virtualization nor a remote connection.
